For this project, we had formed a group of 11 students, each with its own sub role for researching, designing, and campaigning. Our project was "Reforming The Reform System" where we had to research up the pre, ongoing, and post prison conditions.
Me and my teammate Austin worked in the "After serving" section where we had to research on the post release statistics and psychological changes in post-served inmates, and research up with possible solutions to make the place safer.
In the live deliberation event, we had audiences from all backgrounds, from judges to students to post-serving inmates, to other teachers.
I Believe in Financial Literacy
This podcast, modelled after the popular "This I Believe" podcasts on NPR, aims to bring in the critical awareness of money management and spending among young adults, by wrapping it in a story-based scenario with parts of my personal experiences as a middle school student spending money in a carnival. By narrating the story with facts I hope to bring in awareness and change to the audience's perception of money management.
Data Centers - Climate Change's Latest Accelerator
This podcast is a direct adaptation of the aforementioned Issue brief, with a focus towards general audience's perception and to further change the tone from an academic version to a factual-persuasive one, by showcasing the datacenter's electricity consumption prices and the average American's rent prices, showcasing the drasting effects of wasted energy, and climate change, thereby motivating people to save money by utilising datacenter's heat production to heat up homes in winters.
This was a video-editing project that aims to bring out recent/latest controversy surrounded in public, which in reality existed for a long time. the topic me and my team chose was "WAP"- an explicit song, and showcases the audience's perception to explicitly in the music video, while contrasting with explicit songs from as far as the 1920's. The overall goal was to capture the entire explicit history controversy, and link with possible cases, rights and issues.
This video project was made possible with my teammates: Sonika, Caroline, and Jackie.
